Service records, why is Carfax report incomplete?
I'm looking for a high mileage vehicle, and when I look for them on CarGurus
and request the Carfax report and look through it, I can't find where things like
Transmission work or brake work were done, why is that? Is it required that
repair shops document repair work tied to the VIN, or is that just an option? In
many of these cases I just want to know if transmission was at some point
rebuilt/replaced, if so I'd feel better about buying.
